The game is now officially official. The game has a new title, Them's Fightin' Herds (would this thread need a title renaming?), and an IGG campaign is scheduled for September 21st.

So should the old page be renamed, or should a new page be made?

I wonder if they're going to have more than just 3 characters? I know that it's a lot more work for them but 3 characters is really not good for a fighting game.

Tribute Edition at least had six functional, and I believe there were plans for twelve, so I'm gonna hazard at least eight characters.

Not huge, but that's around what Skullgirls had at launch. I'd be happy with that.

Ah. Some sort of Belphegor-looking book of dark magic.

I predict this unicorn will be some form of zoner/trap master, complete with balls of dark magic, portals, and floor traps.

That is a real good pun title, by the way.

That pun kinda makes my teeth ache. It's good and I can hardly think of a name that's more suitable and memorable, but, damn.

I could scarcely imagine it any other way! It's pretty much pure Yosemite Sam.

Maybe Daffy Duck, if you added more of a lisp.

I'm sorry, but I'm curious now, and I have no clue about the pun. Please explain the joke. [lol]

A cool update!

So according to this, there's going to be dynamic music involved. The game will start playing melodies according the relating to the characters chosen as the match goes on. if player A is in the lead, they will have stage music represent her, and the same for vice versa. If both are idle,a special theme will start playing instead.

It's started.

Also, have some music: The game's main theme, and Velvet's personal theme.

I think I would main Arizona if I was one of those people that play fighting games XD

I wonder, will this be a controller-compatible game?

I'm tempted to contribute.

Since a second topic came up, should this one be renamed? Honestly "Thems Fightin' Words - Fighting is Magic lives" wouldn't be a bad title for this discussion.

I think this one should be renamed. Fighting is Magic is a huge misnomer.

One thing of note for the amount of characters: the Predator Scout tier for the Indiegogo lists seven postcards with move-set lists, so looks like there's seven playable characters planned (barring secret characters, if they even decide to go that route, anyway).

Velvet FTW!

That visual lobby looks like a really neat idea. Is that something other fighting games do?
